A ramp is used by your dog to gain access to places he can no longer jump into or onto.It is mostly used by senior dogs who are suffering from joint pains and various other health issues.

There's no doubt your best friend's favorite place to hang out is by your side, whether you are on the couch, in bed, or taking a ride in the car. But for some dogs, sticking close to you can be challenging and even risky without the help of dog stairs or a dog ramp. If your dog has arthritis or joint pain, if you've noticed your dog making failed attempts to hop up on the furniture, or if you find yourself routinely hoisting him up to the bed or into the car, it could be time to get dog ramps or dog stairs to ensure your best friend can easily and safely reach the spots that make him happiest.
